EBNFMaxing

Generate sentences from grammar rules and input tokens.

EBNFMaxing is a .NET library that turns an EBNF grammar and a stream of tokens into output text. Define your grammar, feed it data (string, JSON, or tokens), and get a generated result.

What is it?

Imagine you have a template for how sentences should be built — optional parts, repeated sections, choices between alternatives. EBNFMaxing lets you express that template as a grammar and then run it against real data.

You write rules. You provide input. You get output.

Grammar — EBNF-like rules: optional blocks [...], choices (...|...), loops {...}, and semantic actions that consume tokens and stack values
Input — A string (each char → token), a JSON object, or a stack of key/value tokens
Output — A string, JSON, or a deserialized object via Produce<T>

It’s a general-purpose sentence generator: useful for templating, DSL output, code generation, or any scenario where structure is driven by grammar rules.

Quick start

using Grammars;
using Grammars.Extensions;

var grammar = new GrammarEbnf();
grammar.AddProduction("A = (<a> | <b>)(<a> | <b>)(<a> | <\"c>)");

var result = grammar.ProduceString("ab");
// result == "abc"

Three lines: create the grammar, add a production, produce. That’s it.

Installation

dotnet add package EBNFMaxing

Or in your .csproj:

<PackageReference Include="EBNFMaxing" Version="0.2.0" />

A taste of the syntax

Concept	Syntax	What it does
Consume a token	`<key>`	Matches token by key, stacks its value
Static literal	`<"value">`	Stacks a fixed string (no token consumed)
Optional block	`[content]`	Runs 0 or 1 time if the first action matches
Choice	`(a \\| b \\| c)`	Picks the first branch that matches
Loop	`{content}`	Repeats while the first action matches
Call production	`:Name:`	Invokes another production

For the full picture, see the Wiki.

Example

Grammar: A = <x>[<"-"><y>] — x plus an optional -y part

Input: {"x":"foo","y":"bar"} → Output: "foo-bar"
Input: {"x":"foo"} → Output: "foo"
